Please leave Selenium related tools in place. We may revive this for UI 
automation in future.

Migration: this is/was a tool to assist 1.0.x -> 2.1.x migration. Can be nuked
ant: sure -- your dev OS should have it, unless hudson/jenkins relies on this 
folder
gcc: this seems to be used by the UI javascript?
Junit/mockito: both libraries are used for unit tests, not sure this is safe to 
nuke
Tooljars: not sure if folks are using selenium. Haven't seen any test cases 
driven by selenium
